The driver tried to work around missing completion events that occurred
while interrupts are disabled, by triggering a software interrupt
whenever we exit polling (but we had to have polled at least once).
This was causing a *lot* of extra interrupts for some workloads like
NVMe over TCP, which resulted in regressions in performance. It was also
visible when polling didn't prevent interrupts when busy_poll was
enabled.
Fix the extra interrupts by utilizing our previously unused 3rd ITR
(interrupt throttle) index and set it to 20K interrupts per second, and
then trigger a software interrupt within that rate limit.
While here, slightly refactor the code to avoid an overwrite of a local
variable in the case of wb_en = true.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
